I am a detail-oriented, hardworking Business teacher with two years of experience teaching Small Business and Entrepreneurship, Digital Information Technology, Claud Computing, Research Level 2, and Test-Out IT Fundamentals Pro. In the past two years of teaching, I taught 135 High School students per day. At Wekiva High School and “Orange County Public School,” I had the pleasure of leading many students from different parts of the world and all grade levels, such as 9,10,11,12 grades—skill at creating engaging lesson plans and leveraging technology for better knowledge transfer. At Wekiva High School, I successfully implemented several innovative methods that increased students’ understanding by 95%.

I look forward to bringing my experience to your school and helping students achieve their highest academic potential and goals.
